Test Preparation for IELTS

The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is a test that measures the language proficiency of people who want to study or work in environments where English is used as a language of communication. They are tested in their proficiency of the English language as they are required to study and clear graduate programs in English only.

How popular the IELTS globally is can be gauged from the fact that in the year 2014 alone well over two million candidates appeared for it. In other words, the IELTS is easily the most popular English language proficiency test for aspirants seeking graduate program admissions and migration to the USA, Canada, Europe and other countries. Before getting into the details of preparation for IELTS, it is important here to understand the following facts.

More than 9,000 universities, immigration departments, and other institutions across numerous countries accept your IELTS scores. Unlike the TOEFL, IELTS marks are given weightage by immigration authorities in many countries to assess the eligibility of migrants from non-English speaking countries.

IELTS is jointly managed by the British Council, IDP: IELTS Australia and Cambridge English Language Assessment and was established in 1989. IELTS is one of the major English-language tests in the world, other being the TOEFL.

IELTS is available in two test formats – Academic or General Training – and provides a valid and accurate assessment of the four language skills: listening, reading, writing and speaking. The Academic version is for those who intend taking admission for a graduate course in one of the universities there. And the General category is for those who are migrating to work and settle down in an overseas destination.
